Absolutely correct. Seeding a Pandora station can really help expose oneself to all variety of new things. What I think is sad, though, is that there are not so much any more those good bands that "Everyone" is listening to, culturally. Seems like you have to be one of those people who cares enough about music to go find it. Otherwise, just listen to the same auto-tuned country music and over-compressed post-metal-garbage from your local Clearchannel wastehole.
Hey man - coming from a life long Zeppelin-man, and someone proud to call himself a person with broad, and (I believe) good taste in music - while it is true that there is no longer ANY mainstream-radio rock that is legitimate or good, there are, thanks to the democratizing effect of technology, a great many folks out there making incredible music. some of it very "indie", some of it touching the mainstream. Shouldn't close yourself off like that. At bare minimum, a Zeppelin man would love "White Denim" and/or "Gary Clark, Jr."... both from austin.
But the thing that people like you and me need to accept is that rock is, for lack of a better term, dead. And by this I mean that rock isn't mainstream any more. It just isn't. It sure as hell isn't what "the kids" are into.
I sincerely, sincerely hope that you're joking. Whatever problems the United States may currently face, it is nothing compared to the Gulag Archipelago of the Soviet System. And I think you will find that the current regime has no problem with "extraordinary rendition" to faraway places, either.
Goodness, my "fellow" American hawks sure are itching for war with Russia. Unfortunately, I don't think this is the solution to domestic problems and the care and feeding of the media that they believe it will be.
Dude, don't worry - by the looks of it, Alice Hill appears to be woman. This isn't 4chan or reddit, the worst she can expect from us slashdotters would be an army of us asking to carry her books every day.
Logic/Cubase on the Mac, Sonar/Cubase for Windows. (My personal preference is Cubase). When this question was last asked not even 6 months ago, it was pretty well demonstrated that the state of open source DAW applications was fine for the hobbyist or the casual user, but if you want to do actual work, you need to get some real tools.
Yes. How dare lavabit challenge the order of a secret court! If only he had rolled over, none of this would have happened. People like you make me sick.
How does this get modded +5 insightful? You start making a reasonably good point, but then you move to " logic-blinded fanbois as customers
who will buy anything you hand them just to look cool". I really don't understand it. It's one of two things, either 1) an excellent troll, or 2) you're another one of those undeservedly self-aggrandizing man-children who really is flat out emotionally incapable of understanding adult human beings, and how so-called "regular users" inferface with technology.. Either way, I really don't care for you much. Get this through your head: They use the product because they like it. It works for them. They enjoy it. People of all ages. Not just your buddies in the call center. The unlikeable sperg-lord sitting in the dark corner calling them "fanbois", obsessed with the perceived behavior: petty, shallow, trying "just to look cool" - yeah that's you.
Grow up.
I obviously can't speak for the band Phoenix, but I enjoy their music and based on my personal interpretation of the "spirit" of their work, I find it hard to believe they would have ever endorsed this action. Of course they themselves didn't, it was certainly yet another of these industry lawyers at the ironically-named "Liberation Music" who is responsible. I'm only saying this because I imagine it has to be terribly frustrating for a group of musicians to potentially have their reputation and name damaged because of such a ridiculous abuse of the DMCA.
As if these soul-sucking, perverse leeches on humanity (that health and sickness should be a source of capitalist profit is 100% my definition of perversity) don't have the ability to track every. single. penny. that passes through their disgusting hands. Another lovely chapter in the american long-con.
I personally have a hard time keeping track of all of the humanitarian efforts Microsoft engaged in while they abused their monopoly position to crush competitors without even the slightest regard for morality and decency. You know, because there were so many. I very much admire Mr. Gates and the work of his foundation - there is no question they have done and are doing wonderful things. But quite a lot of revisionism going on in his head, it seems. I wonder where he thinks his wealth came from?
Look, not for nothing, but this summary really is exceptionally poorly written. "...while other atomic clocks are better than that, researchers suspect the optical lattice is better still..."? Is this the 10th grade? "Better than that" is how we summarize a new type of clock? Why don't we just throw style out the window and write that it's very, very, very, very, very, very, very good? Additionally, can we possibly have even a quick sentence to explain of why the optical lattice is "better still"?.
I mean, I can obviously read the article, but frankly now I don't want to.
Culturally a popcorn, soda, and box of candy is traditionally seen as part of the movie going "experience". So is an evening at the movies, so is an afternoon with the family. I suppose that everyone could just go to matinees.
Anyway, what I take from your post is that "people who eat at theaters are stupid and also they are stupid for not going to a matinee show". Real high quality/. awareness-of-public-at-large there, sir! I commend you.

Mmmmm. Boy, I get upset when my feminist friends talk about the problems women face in our society. But wow, eyes opened. I hope you feel good about yourself that you don't think that being coerced against your will to expose yourself isn't a form of rape. Because it is, and I sincerely hope that when you someday mature enough to have a loving relationship with a female, you have will have changed your opinion, captain pedantic.
(ignoring the fact that he did this 350 times, but whatever)
Forcing someone against their will to engage in any kind of sexual activity is absolutely rape. Just because you don't think it is doesn't change that fact.
He coerced *350* women, via blackmail, to remove their clothes. That is a sexual violation. Ask those women how they feel about it. Tell them it's not a form of rape and see what they have to say.
He's a sociopath. He does not possess the basic human foundations of emotion and empathy which allow him to see these women as anything more than objects for him to manipulate to his own ends. He violated them as surely as if he had physically assaulted them. That he committed his crimes with a computer is irrelevant. He can't be fixed. He is exactly the kind of person that we WANT taken out of society. And, to compare him to Aaron Swartz is a peak of intellectual dishonesty.
If you're a monolithic organization only just now about to start your three-years-in-the-making migration to 7, you're also probably not a Google Apps customer...
So, the company that has open-source, document video drivers for Linux, and has apparently worked closely with Valve on their Linux gaming project, with great praise from Valve is *also* working with Microsoft to destroy Linux. Gotcha.
Well, these kind of opportunities are how we can best expand our skill sets, and often times are how we grow in our careers and as people. However, it's great that you work for a company that has taken an interest in you and helped you to grow your career. That's a lucky thing.
Not an easy decision at all, but since this isn't a "grass is greener choice" maybe just look at it as I've said above - about your evolution as a person.

Is your current touchpad's ability to read the summary and/or article broken?

(Although it should be noted article is misleading as well) Server 2012 Standard as well as Datacenter fully supports virtualization through Hyper-V. However, Standard edition is only licensed for running only two instances of _itself_ (actually more generous than the 1 physical, 1 virtual of current 2008 R2 STD licensing). Datacenter supports unlimited licenses.
